Blumhouse comes to video games with six different indie horror projects

A new indie video game publisher made its debut in Los Angeles last week: Blumhouse Games, a division of the horror movie production company co-founded by director Jason Blum in 2000. Unsurprisingly, its specialty will be horror. During the livestreamed Summer Game Fest showcase, Blum and creative lead Louise Blain announced a slate of six experimental horror games, the first of which, Fear the Spotlight, will launch later this year. Blum described the games label as "going back to our roots, with a focus on indie horror, pushing boundaries and elevating new, original stories". Like the company's movies, from Paranormal Activity to M3GAN, its games are all low-budget productions with interesting ideas.
